Hi everyone! Long time no speak… I apologise for my absolute lack in writing since August last year. What can I say, a lot has happened since then. I started this blog as a way of communicating honestly with people in hope that they could relate to my circumstances or situations and hopefully take reassurance… Continue reading 20 weeks pregnant & counting
I have asked Mummy to write this for your birthday as I haven’t quite learnt how to type just yet. I hope that you are enjoying your day, working away. Mummy has made you a sandwich for once so I bet that has brightened up your day. I want to tell you how much you… Continue reading Dear Daddy
I feel like it has been a long time since I last wrote a blog post, and to be completely honest with you, I have struggled with inspiration on what to write about. I have realised that my writing technique comes from past events or experiences that I have gone through as opposed to just… Continue reading Is there ever a right time to have a baby?
Dearest Heidi Beau, I write you this letter today as I am in the midst of planning your very first birthday. No matter how many times I pinch myself I still don’t know what I have done to deserve you. Nearly a whole year ago I was carrying you around in my belly wondering whether… Continue reading An open letter to my nearly One year old

I feel that the day should be celebrated, mums should be celebrated and life should be celebrated. I personally feel… Continue reading Mothering Sunday
Weeks prior to my first day back at work I felt that anxious pang in my belly every time I thought about it. How can I leave my baby in the hands of anyone else? How will they know her routine that I have spent nine months putting in to place? Will they be able… Continue reading Going back to work after Maternity Leave
Now I’ve been pondering in my head for a while now whether to post a blog on such a demanding topic, one that brings so much debate among mothers and professionals.

That chicken madras was quite nice actually. Considering I always have korma. We had some of our best friends round for the evening the day before my little human was due to surface, and we thought we would try to encourage the labour. Of course we had already tried all the oldest tricks in the book, none being successful, and the last one… Continue reading New Beginnings – My Birth Story Part 1
